摘要

Objective:To study the effects of regional cerebral blood flow（r CBF）perfusion on learning and memory function in special brain areas and its molecular mechanism in rat.Methods:Sixty-four adult male healthy Sprague-Dawley（SD）rats were randomly divided into two groups:A false operation group and an operation group.The false operation group was randomly divided into four subgroups（A0,B0,C0,and D0）and the operation group was randomly divided into four subgroups（A,B,C,and D）,with eight rats in each subgroup.The operation group underwent bilateral common carotid artery permanent ligation,while the other group only underwent a skin incision without the bilateral common carotid artery permanent ligation.Learning memory function of rats in each subgroup was measured using a Y-maze at 4 h,8 h,24 h,and 3 days after surgery.The r CBF in the right frontal lobe and hippocampus was detected using the Periflux PF model laser Doppler flowmetry and c-fos,c-jun,Bcl-2,and Bax protein expression in the right frontal lobe and hippocampus was measured using immunohistochemistry.Results:The r CBF in the right frontal lobule division and right hippocampus division was significantly lower in the operation group than in the false operation group（P<0.05）.The error number（EN）,time to reach the target,and total reaction time（TRT）for the learning index using the Y-type labyrinth test in the operation group were significantly higher than that in the false operation group（P<0.05）;however,the active avoid rate in the operation group was significantly lower than that of the false operation group.Expression of c-fos and c-jun as well as the average absorbency in the right frontal lobule division and right hippocampus division in the operation group were significantly higher than those in the false operation group（P<0.05）.The number of Bax and Bcl-2-positive cells was significantly higher in the operation group,and the expression ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 in the operation group was significantly higher than that in the
